I had my 2nd cycle of AC on the 10TH May & on day 5 got severe pains in my stomach & back with profuse sweating & vomiting, I also lost fresh blood with a chemical smell so ended up in A&E with a CT scan which showed colitis. The DR'S thought it was chemo induced & I ended up being in for 10 days, while there my white blood cells went down to 0.08 so I needed an injection to boost them back up.
My oncologist was informed by the surgical team & he advised that in future I would be given the injection for my blood cells. I am due my 3rd cycle on Tuesday the 31ST. I am so worried about the colitis appearing again & was told the chemo may be delayed & the oncologist would be ringing me but he has not been in touch up to today.
I hope things work out for you & that they can perhaps give you a different type of chemo with less side effects.
